Okay, so, I recently got really into tracking college football stats. It’s not as complicated as it sounds, really. I wanted to dive into Blake Watson’s college stats, specifically. Here’s how I did it and what I found.
First, I started digging around online. You know, just generally looking for information on this guy, Blake Watson. I found out that he was born on October 14, 1999, in Queens, New York. Later, he moved to North Carolina, which is where he went to Green Hope High School.
Then, I moved on to actually pulling the stats. I started with the 2023 regular season since that was the most recent full season. I saw that he had 177 attempts, 1045 yards, a long run of 69 yards, and 14 touchdowns. He also averaged 87.1 yards per game. Pretty impressive, right?
After that, I wanted a more complete picture of his college career. I found out he played for Old Dominion from 2018 to 2022 and then for Memphis in 2023. Oh, and it said he’s currently with the Denver Broncos as an undrafted free agent in 2024. The status says “Active,” which is cool.
I did a little more digging and learned that he’s 25 years old, about 5’9″, and is currently a running back. I went through a few sites just to cross-reference and make sure the stats were consistent, and they mostly were. I felt pretty confident about the data at this point.
Here’s a breakdown of what I gathered about Blake:
- Born: October 14, 1999, in Queens, NY
- High School: Green Hope High School, North Carolina
- College: Old Dominion (2018-2022), Memphis (2023)
- Current Team: Denver Broncos (Undrafted, 2024)
- Position: Running Back
- Age: 25
- Height: 5’9″
And here are some key stats from his 2023 regular season:
- Attempts: 177
- Yards: 1045
- Long Run: 69 yards
- Touchdowns: 14
- Average Yards per Game: 87.1
Putting it all together was kind of fun. It made me feel like a real sports analyst for a minute there. And now, I’ve got a pretty solid understanding of Blake Watson’s college performance and his journey to the NFL. Hope this was helpful for anyone else interested in his stats!
